ANS: C
Fetal monitoring of multiples may be difficult, but triplet monitors are available and should be used, if possible, for triplets. This is preferable to obtaining serial, individual tracings. The fetuses are labeled in ascending order, with the presenting fetus labeled A. It is not necessary to monitor the fetuses in presenting order so long as they are clearly labeled.
